For Friday the 13th, here’s one that has become a standby here at the Fogged In Lounge, Ada Coleman’s Hanky Panky. It’s a Savoy Cocktail so I’ll let Erik tell
the story. I like the Hanky Panky with Punt e Mes in place of regular sweet vermouth, though if made that way following the printed formula, it becomes too heavy for me.
Hanky Panky (Punt e Mes)
- 2 oz London dry gin
- 1 oz Punt e Mes
- 1/2 tsp Fernet-Branca
Stir with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Orange twist.

The phrase "Hanky Panky" always makes me think of that awful Madonna song. I won't desiccate your blog with quoted lyrics but I might drink one of these very soon.

I’ve been singing it to The Hokey Pokey all day myself.
